Connect / Perplexity
Connect OntoRamp to Perplexity
Add OntoRamp as a custom remote connector in Perplexity.
Requires a paid Perplexity plan (Pro, Max, or Enterprise).
Before you start
You need an OntoRamp API key — get one free at ontoramp.com/mcp. Keys arrive by email within 60 seconds and are passed as a Bearer token in the Authorization header: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY. If your tool asks for an API key directly, paste just the key — the header is added for you.

- 2.Click + Custom connector in the top-right corner.
- 3.Enter a Name and paste the OntoRamp server URL into MCP server URL.
- 4.Expand Advanced, set Authentication to API Key, paste your OntoRamp key, and leave Transport on Streamable HTTP.
- 5.Check the acknowledgement box and click Add — the connector appears in your connector list, enabled.
Custom connectors run in Perplexity Computer tasks. If a regular search answers without calling OntoRamp, re-run the question as a Computer task (or click “Run task” on the answer).
In an Enterprise workspace, non-admin members can add custom connectors only if an admin turns on “Allow members to add custom connectors” (off by default).
